Appreciate a stay in Beaufort's esteemed historic Old Point neighborhood in a appealing antebellum home.

The suite is steps away from downtown Beaufort and the Henry Chambers Waterfront Park, which is surrounded by some of the most pretty vistas in the region.

The first room you enter is the sunroom, which is bright and inviting. Unwind on the two exceptionally comfortable antique rocking chairs that look out to the gardens through broad casement windows.

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Beaufort, SC vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Beaufort. Book your rental in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.
